Recent Troubles Between Bendir and the Grove

There have been recent incursions between Bendir and the druidic Grove. We must proceed with caution! At the head of these happenings is a being known as "Melkoth," who pulls the strings of Bendir guards and Grove members alike. The former archdruidess Aleani was mislead by Melkoth to attack a member of the Bendir guard, Maar, and kill him. Similarly, Melkoth has convinced a select few of the Bendir guard to return assault upon the Grove.

Arlan Swordhill, follower of Hoar, sought vengeance against the Grove, knowing full well he was acting as Melkoth's pawn. He razed the Grove, killing all who lived beneath its boughs without remorse. He may continue to do so. We must exercise careful patience in this matter! We must see the truth brought to light despite the base desires of those on both sides to shed blood. We must not deliver to the crazed individuals a sword or ally to bring forth further harm.
